Markgräfler
Markgräfler is a winery in Baden, Germany's warmest wine region, where continental and Mediterranean climates converge to ripen grapes with intensity and balance. The winery focuses on dry wines across three principal varietals. Rivaner Trocken and Spätburgunder Trocken, both rated 88.0 by Falstaff, anchor the portfolio—the former a crisp white of regional character, the latter a Pinot Noir expression suited to Baden's terroir. Regent Trocken, a modern hybrid variety, rounds the range at 87.6. These dry releases reflect Baden's reputation for clean, food-friendly wines that balance ripeness with acidity, whether white or red. The winery's focus on trocken (dry) styling positions it within the contemporary German approach that emphasizes varietal expression over residual sweetness.
